For your consideration, we at The Wheelhouse –a show that connects politics in Connecticut and beyond to the people– have submitted our episode detailing how reading became the subject of a political war.

We covered this topic to serve the public by informing them that there is a right way to teach people how to read. We wanted them to know about local and national barriers to this research-based method of reading instruction.
